OMG......just gooled head cheese..................ewee

yes, head cheese

but you would probably know it better as Brawn.

OH and I both knew it as Head Cheese even in the UK.


"Head cheese (AmE), or brawn (BrE), is a cold cut that originated in Europe. A version pickled with vinegar is known as souse. Head cheese is not a cheese but a terrine or meat jelly made with flesh from the head of a calf or pig (sometimes a sheep or cow), and often set in aspic

Head cheese may be flavored with onion, black pepper, allspice, bay leaf, salt, and vinegar. It is usually eaten cold or at room temperature as a luncheon meat. It can also be made from quality trimmings from pork and veal, adding gelatin to the stock as a binder."


we can buy it here from the deli counter in the grocery store.



doesn't usually now include brain or eyes, etc, although the original peasant food possibly did


We sometimes buy it in the summer to have with salad.

Hi Grace



I had kangaroo when we were down there in 2006.


I loved it!


Mind you it was treated like a excellent cut of beef, and had a "sauce" of red currants or something similar.

Hi Gins...this is what you'll see on the death cert:

Marital status of deceased
occupation
usual residence
name of deceased
cause of death
who has certified the death
where death took place
father's name & occupation
mother's name & occupation
name of informant and address
date, place and name of registrar

Hope that helps, most of my lot seem to come from Scotland, I think I have kept that site running with the amount of credits I have purchased!

True Sylv

But would pay £19.90 over a year anyway, so I am only saving 10p a year

As long as I don't have Brawn.. my mum often had it. though she used to buy it from the deli. I think it depends on your recipe how it all comes out..

As I have just had my dinner... I will have a cinnamon roll and will make a cup of hot chocolate.

Though your quiche does look nice Dea.... well what is left of it does!! ;-)

OOh just saw the streudel upside down cake... hmmmm that and a dollop of whipped cream... will put some in the fridge for morning tea tomorrow...

Thanks Gracie for the death cert info x

I'll have fresh fruit salad with vanilla yoghurt please Syls. I am now 24hrs into my lose weight campaign

..............oh joy, Im having such fun
:-(

Never mind Ginns - It will all be worth it in the end !! <3

I was always quite a 'chubby child', then around the age of 16 all my 'puppy fat' disappeared and I became a slim teenager.

I got a job working in a Pharmacy and even in those days, when I got hungry I just HAD to have something straight away.

There was not much to hand but they did have a range of diet foods - in particular, I used to like the 'Limmits' Chocolate covered peppermint cream biscuits and I grabbed them quite often . ;-)

My dad was really worried about me eating these as he genuinely thought that the more of them you ate, the thinner you became :-D :-D :-D
